Maggie Dooley packed her grip and left Erin's Isle,For a trip to Honolulu.Maggie Dooley learned to dance after a while,Came back home dressed like a Zulu.She has a brand new walk;She talks Hawaiian talk;She's made a Honolulu out of poor old County Cork.

Maggie Dooley has the people all off their nut,With her new Hawaiian Blarney.Every body's leaving town and building a hut,On the lakes of old Killarney.I think it's a disgrace;The women of the placeAre making wild men out of all the poor old Irish race.

ChorusSince Maggie Dooley learned the Hooley Hooley,Ireland is fading away.The Sweeneys and Daleys have sold their shilelahs,And bought Ukelelees to play.The fat Miss Kelly wiggles just like jelly,When those dancers sway;And every colleen on the streetIs all dressed up like shredded wheat,Since Maggie Dooley learned the Hooley.

Maggie Dooley packed her grip and left Erin's Isle,For a trip to Honolulu.Maggie Dooley learned to dance after a while,Came back home dressed like a Zulu.She has a brand new walk;She talks Hawaiian talk;She's made a Honolulu out of poor old County Cork.

Maggie Dooley has the people all off their nut,With her new Hawaiian Blarney.Every body's leaving town and building a hut,On the lakes of old Killarney.I think it's a disgrace;The women of the placeAre making wild men out of all the poor old Irish race.

ChorusSince Maggie Dooley learned the Hooley Hooley,Ireland is fading away.The Sweeneys and Daleys have sold their shilelahs,And bought Ukelelees to play.The fat Miss Kelly wiggles just like jelly,When those dancers sway;And every colleen on the streetIs all dressed up like shredded wheat,Since Maggie Dooley learned the Hooley.

Maggie Dooley packed her grip and left Erin's Isle,For a trip to Honolulu.Maggie Dooley learned to dance after a while,Came back home dressed like a Zulu.She has a brand new walk;She talks Hawaiian talk;She's made a Honolulu out of poor old County Cork.

Maggie Dooley has the people all off their nut,With her new Hawaiian Blarney.Every body's leaving town and building a hut,On the lakes of old Killarney.I think it's a disgrace;The women of the placeAre making wild men out of all the poor old Irish race.

ChorusSince Maggie Dooley learned the Hooley Hooley,Ireland is fading away.The Sweeneys and Daleys have sold their shilelahs,And bought Ukelelees to play.The fat Miss Kelly wiggles just like jelly,When those dancers sway;And every colleen on the streetIs all dressed up like shredded wheat,Since Maggie Dooley learned the Hooley.
